      <p>Heart rate is the rate that your heart beats. It is measured in beats per minute (bpm).</p>
      <p>You can measure your heart rate by:</p> 

<ol style="list-style-type:decimal">
      <li>1. Using your index and middle fingers</li>
      <li>2. Finding your pulse at the carotid artery in the neck OR the radial artery in on the thumb side of the inside of your wrist</li>
      <li>3. Count the number of times you feel the heart beat in 30 seconds</li>
      <li>4. Multiply that number by 2</li>
      <li>5. That number is now your heart rate</li>
</ol>
